Trapping Has Never Been Easier

Trapping has never been easier than with Havahart® Easy Set® traps. Patented technology allows you to set your two trap doors open with just one hand and in one quick motion. Easy Set® also allows you to let critters go without ever having to touch the doors. Plus, updated sturdy hardware provides additional comfort, security, and durability.

Expert-Designed to Give You a Smooth Cat-Trapping Experience

This Havahart® humane cat trap is specifically designed to make catching feral cats easy. It's built with a large trip plate to ensure contact with the animal, and its targeted trip mechanism prevents smaller critters from falsely triggering the spring-loaded door closed.

Enlarged Hand Guard and Carrying Handle Protect You

An enlarged steel plate covers the entire width of the top of the trap, protecting your hand from contact with the animal. And the updated, rigid plastic carrying handle makes the handling experience even more comfortable for you.

Safe, Rolled Metal Edges Protect the Animal

Just like the Havahart® traps you’ve relied on for years, this trap is constructed of one-piece wire mesh, galvanized for resistance to rust and corrosion. And edges are polished smooth to protect the animal from injuring itself during transport.

No-Escape Door Locks Give You Peace of Mind

A Two-Door Trap is Effective and Versatile

A two-door animal trap allows you to create a clear path from one end of the trap to the other by setting it with both ends open. Place this two-door trap against a wall or along an animal’s path in order to capture it as it travels from either direction. In order to access the bait and get to the other end, the animal must step on the trigger plate, resulting in a catch.

We have purchased 75 of traditional and easy-set styles over the years. We use them to trap ferals for our Spay Days and the traps are continuously used by the public-at-large to capture and bring cats to our clinic. We often have 65 cats on each Spay Day.

We know every trap style has a downside. Our concern with the easy-set trap is if the brace does not fall properly to pressure the door, the cat can easily escape. In trying to counter this chance, we instruct people to place rods across the trap width next to the doors once the food is set and the cat is inside. We have also learned if any object bumps the brace, including a cat reaching through the fabric, the door can easily open, allowing escape.

The plastic black end caps holding the two doors in place slide off, allowing the doors to dislodge. We need to tap on wire caps to replace the black ends. Once off, the black end caps cannot be returned to the rod ends.

The other problem we are now encountering now are the wire springs that enable the doors to close. If those become bent or worn, the door will not drop properly. We need to ask Havahart to send us new springs to repair.

The remaining problem we have encountered is sometimes the traps are bent during shipment, sometimes affecting their work-ability.

We have been buying Havahart traps for many years. We have 75 of them on hand.
To us, the best traps were made several years ago because heavier metal was used for the fabric and the end clips were uncomplicated because of his. The present traditional traps have the end clip latching-over which, to us, presents an additional catch-problem. The latching-over is required because the metal quality is lighter, in our opinion.

The only traps i would consider using. Did not know the complete make over that was done on the setting mechanism of these new traps. Unbelievable. Bought 4. Gave one to my 96 year old mother because of the ease of use. She still kept old one for back-up! Amazing

We recommend firmly and quickly moving the handle into place so that tension on the cable will set properly and hold the door open. Feel free to contact our Consumer Relations Team at 1-855-5-HAVAHART (1-855-542-8242) for additional assistance.

The differences between these three models would be the size and the animals that it would be best for. The information on each trap, as well as the pricing can be found on the product pages.
